Tang Xiu subconsciously lit up a cigarette after hanging up and fell into silence, thinking about something. Money was nothing but a very trivial thing to him, yet he needed a lot of cultivation resources, and the most direct means to get them was buying them with money.

The Magnificent Tang Corp. was about to open a new pattern of capital circulation, but Tang Xiu was having a headache due to their newly developed product… the Flying Disc. Great efforts and hardships had been poured into its research and, in turn, it must be used to raise capital. However, he wasn’t sure if the military could fully absorb and digest its production.

He fell into this train of thought for a long while. Then, he looked at Yuan Chuling’s group. They were his classmates and brothers, and thus, he sincerely hoped that they would be successful in life as well. However, he wasn’t prepared to teach them any cultivation art since the path of cultivation was full of thorns and riddled with dangers. He might as well let them live comfortably for a lifetime instead of pushing them into desperation to walk on the cultivation path.

Shortly after, he made another call and then spoke after his call got picked up, “I’m waiting for you at the Everlasting Feast Hall in Jingmen Island at 6 PM tomorrow. It’s about the big deal we’ve talked about previously. I’m ready to trade it with you.”

“Which field is it about?” Duanmu Lin’s voice came out of the mobile phone.

“It’s about that air vehicle,” answered Tang Xiu.

“I see. Then I’ll rush over to the Everlasting Feast Hall in Jingmen Island. I’ll be there at 6 PM tomorrow,” replied Duanmu Lin in a deep voice.

Tang Xiu hung up and then looked at everyone else. “Don’t rush back to Shanghai first, guys. I’ll be taking you all with me to see what a so-called big business means tomorrow evening.”

Yuan Chuling, Yue Kai, and Hu Qingsong exchanged glances and held some anticipation inwardly. They were all aware of how big the business Tang Xiu had been running was. The Magnificent Tang Corp. could literally be said as a money-printing machine that could be compared to the bank’s money-printing machine if fully operational.

Prior to this, Tang Xiu had never taken them to see any business negotiations. But he now seemed about to give them a chance to get enlightened since they had nothing important to do and were just fooling around at the present. They couldn’t help but look forward to it.

It was like an adage that said: people will be influenced by those close to them.

They used to have no ambitions nor lofty aspirations. They did have some dreams to achieve big accomplishments in life in the future once in a while, but at the end of the day, fantasy was nothing but fantasy—a daydream that would be gone in a flash and existed only to mock themselves. But ever since they got acquainted with Tang Xiu, they could see his unparalleled edge. They themselves didn’t seem to realize that they had subtly been influenced by Tang Xiu, thus leading to having expectations for the future and working hard to sow the seed for the dreams in their hearts.

Shortly after, Tang Xiu led Yuan Chuling’s group to the Everlasting Feast Hall’s HQ in Jingmen Island. He just assigned some people to settle them down and then left with Cheng Yannan directly.

In the spacious and bright room, Tang Xiu lit up a cigarette, paced toward the window and looked at the lush scenery of greenery outside. He watched many guests walking around and enjoying their leisure time.

“Have you thought about what are you gonna do in the future, Cheng Yannan?” asked Tang Xiu slowly as he turned to look at Cheng Yannan and puffed out smoke.

Standing behind Tang Xiu, Cheng Yannan wore a somewhat complicated look. Back when she met Tang Xiu, it was because he was expelled from other classes and got transferred to their class. At first, she didn’t like him and even hated him. She thought that Tang Xiu was a rotten rat that would affect all her classmates.

However, the current Tang Xiu had enough achievements to make her look up to him. She even felt that she had been really blind then after she learned a few things about him later on. It was because she felt that there was no other wonderboy in the world that seemed to be better than him.

What about what she wanted to do in the future?

It was an issue she had never mulled over. She had even thought about committing suicide in the past. It was Tang Xiu who gave her hope and opportunity, relieving her from much of her worries in life that made her pass her days comfortably. Only after Tang Xiu’s inquiry did she finally begin to consider what kind of future life she would like to have.

“I just… don’t know.”

Even after being silent for a long while, Cheng Yannan only let out a wry smile and shook her head. She knew that helping Tang Xiu to manage the herbs plantation and the fierce beasts ranch on the two islands in the South China Sea was but a temporary job. But she herself was at a loss and in the dark about what she wanted to do in the future.

“Since you yourself are in the dark, then might as well let me arrange the future for you. How about it?” said Tang Xiu slowly.

Cheng Yannan stared blankly and asked with a confused expression, “How would you arrange it for me, though?”
